Beschreibung
"I have never thought of the neck from this point of view before: as a functional entity fulfilling many different and important needs. Kent Dunlap offers a unique and important look at the neck as much more than a mere arbitrary junction between the head and the torso, with their conflicting demands to house the brain, the heart, the lungs, and gut. "-Pat Shipman, author of Our Oldest Companions: The Story of the First Dogs. "A whole book about necks. Yes. Covering both science and culture, Dunlap reveals how our necks are a site of strength as well as vulnerability and the role they play in communication, status, and sex. Dunlap is the ideal guide to this underappreciated part of our body, and you'll never think of the space between your head and torso in quite the same way after reading this entertaining and engaging book. "-Rebecca Heisman, author of Flight Paths: How a Passionate and Quirky Group of Pioneering Scientists Solved the Mystery of Bird Migration.
